Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a bowl, mix the olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper. Rub this mixture over the lamb chops and let them marinate for at least 30 minutes.
Cooking Potatoes
  1. Boil cubed Yukon Gold potatoes in a large pot until fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.
  2. Drain the potatoes, return them to the pot, and add butter, heavy cream, salt, and pepper. Mash until smooth and creamy.
Cooking Lamb and Asparagus
  1. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the lamb chops for 3-4 minutes on each side until caramelized.
  2. In another skillet, heat olive oil, add minced garlic and asparagus, seasoning with salt and pepper. Sauté until tender-crisp, about 4-5 minutes.
Making the Sauce
  1. In the skillet used for lamb, add butter, beef broth, Dijon mustard, and rosemary. Simmer until slightly thickened, then spoon over the lamb before serving.

Notes

This dish can be made ahead; marinate lamb a day prior. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to three days. Reheat carefully.
